Autonomous Pick and Place Robot
Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject SummaryRepetetive Tasks and good accuracy have become needs of any industrial Process. By introducing Autonomous Robotic system repetetive tasks such as pick and place task can be accomplished. However, developing these application for countries like pakistan where cheap labour is available, becomes a major problem. This Project deals with design and control of an autonomous 3DOF Pick and Place Manipulator which can not only pick and place objects within its workspace, but also able to identify object according to its shape. The system will t
Project Objectives- To design and control 3 DOF computer vision assisted robot which will be able to pick and place small objects within its workspace
- To compare the efficiency of robot with excisting manipulators used for pick and place tasks.
The Project will have two major components:
Object Detection and Identification: A suitable object detection method would be chosen for detecting small objects using camera. The next step would be to estimate real world coordinates of object within manipulators workspace. This part would be implemented on Raspberry Pi using Python. Object coordinates would be sent to Arduino using serial connection.
Controlling of motors and actuators: After calculating forward and inverse kinematics of system, motor controlling and calibration would be done in second part. Arduino microcontroller board with stepper motor driver would be used for controlling stepper motors. Location from pi would be used by arduino to estimate final position of end effector for required output. Path planning of end effector would also be implemented.
Benefits of the ProjectThe accomplishment in Project can offer better ways to perform industrial tasks such as:
- Repeated pick and place tasks.
- Part Placement assembly and Packaging
- Bin picking of random Parts
Final Deliverable include a complete 3Dof Pick and Place System. Which will be able to Identify objects and thier location within its workspace and pick and plcae these objects to desired location within its workspace.
